I thought Cruel Beauty was just ok. I'm giving Crimson Bound a chance because I liked Rosamund Hodge's writing, I just didn't like the characters in Cruel Beauty. I just bought Blythewood a week or so ago and I'm looking forward to reading it. I've heard good things about it. Nice haul!

Great books this week! Very excited for Crimson Bound (especially since finding out it isn't a sequel!LOL) and for Dead to Me! I need to read my copy of Blythewood---I've heard such great things about that series!
